# Dashboard

The Dashboard is the primary screen you see immediately after logging into Walnut. It acts as a high-level snapshot of your work, projects, and recent activity, allowing you to grasp the current state of your entire workspace at a single glance.

#### What’s on the Dashboard?

The Dashboard is organized into four key areas designed to provide maximum context with minimum navigation:

* **Key Metrics Cards:** Instant summary cards that display critical data points:
  * **Total Projects:** The number of active workspaces you can access.
  * **User Stories:** A count of requirements within your selected project.
  * **Team Members:** The total number of collaborators assigned.
  * **My Action Items:** A dedicated count of tasks specifically assigned to you.
* **Active Projects Section:** A list of your current workstreams. Each card shows the project name, its status (e.g., *Active* or *Configuring Uploads*), and the scale of the project in terms of stories and members.
* **Organization Panel:** Provides your professional profile context, including the Organization Name, your Access Level (e.g., Admin or Member), and your registered email identity.
* **Recent Activity Feed:** A live stream of modifications across your projects, including configuration changes, AI model updates, and edits made by your collaborators.

#### Why the Dashboard is Useful

The Dashboard is designed to streamline your workflow by focusing on four core benefits:

* **Centralized Visibility:** It consolidates information from multiple modules into one screen, so you don't have to hunt for data.
* **Operational Efficiency:** It saves significant time by reducing manual navigation through menus to find project statuses.
* **Smart Prioritization:** By highlighting "My Action Items" and the "Recent Activity" feed, it helps you immediately identify what requires your attention first.
* **Team Transparency:** It improves alignment by showing real-time updates and team modifications, ensuring everyone stays informed of the latest project shifts.
